President Donald Trump s reelection campaign is running online ads claiming that hes getting America OUT of Endless Wars and will NEVER stop fighting to restore peace around the world a dubious statement from a president who has deployed the largest non-nuclear bomb ever and overseen a dramatic increase in U.S. military strikes killing civilians abroad.

The ads, which are running on Facebook , are part of a broader effort by Trump and his allies to credit him with getting the U.S. out of unpopular military interventions abroad, as well as to collect contact information they can use to encourage potential supporters to vote and donate. And after decades of bellicose rhetoric from much of the right, they show how some Republicans now believe the smarter political move is to fight on anti-war terrain.

Thanks to President Trumps leadership, his administration has taken out two of the worlds top terrorist leaders, successfully decimated [the Islamic State], and has been committed to getting the United States OUT of Endless Wars, reads a message the Trump campaign began promoting on Facebook on July 30. The late top terrorist leaders likely refers to Islamic State head Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani.

The same text is used as a caption for various images, some of which include 1960s-style psychedelic graphics, peace signs and slogans like Peace Not War and Support Peace. Other graphics with photos of Trump label him the negotiator of peace and say he stopped America from getting into endless wars. The ads are being shown in multiple states, according to Facebook, including Texas and three crucial to Trumps reelection bid Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio.
